The Celebration of Excellence Awards Gala and Scholarship Dinner is a community outreach program of the Inland Valley

News sponsored together with its affiliated not for-profit, public benefit 501(c)(3) corporation, Shining Glory Publications. The event is one of the few true celebrations of the achievements and contributions of people who help make this community the jewel of Southern California. Last year, hundreds of registered guests, including leaders in business, education, housing, transportation, health care, government, church and media as well as other key decision-makers participated in this annual celebration.

Congratulations to all our honorees and recipients of the 2018 Celebration of Excellence.

The Morrow Pancreatic Health Foundation will also benefit from this event also. Inspired by Inland Valley News Founder and Publisher, Tommy Morrow's nearly fatal bout with severe necrotizing pancreatitis, the Morrow Pancreatic Health Foundation will provide prevention, education, and awareness around pancreatic related illnesses to underserved communities and populations that are prone to inadequate healthcare.
